Chapter 343 Meeting The Grandparents.

Everything that belonged to the Quirk family also belonged to Alexander, for now held the reins of the family's power.

However, since Lionel was still living there, it was a bit inappropriate to discuss this now.

After a moment of thought, Isabella shook her head. "I just thought it was quite spectacular."

Sure, it must be worth a fortune, but living in such a vast place must be a real hassle. We've been driving for five minutes and we're still not at the front door. The house must be even larger. I bet it takes more than ten minutes just to walk from the bedroom to the dining room. Given how lazy I am, if I lived here, I'd probably lose weight from all the exhaustion.

The Quirk family marveled at Isabella's perspective.

Moreover, a huge place like this seems more likely to be haunted.

Several members of the Quirk family, who were afraid of ghosts, instinctively shrank back. They had never pondered such questions before. D*mn it! I won't dare to sleep alone tonight.

Alexander felt relieved that he still had his wife keeping him company.

Soon, the car came to a halt in a large compound. Upon exiting the car, they were immediately confronted with a massive entrance gate.

The other cars arrived too. Everyone excitedly pushed the grand door open and entered the reception hall.

From a distance, Isabella spotted an elderly man with white hair, seated solemnly at the head of the sofa. Despite his advanced age, he was full of vitality. When they entered, his eyes lit up, especially when he saw Alexander. It seemed as though a tear glistened in his eyes. He moved slightly, but he maintained his stoic demeanor.

He was none other than Lionel.

Sitting next to Lionel was Marley, who had a friendly and warm demeanor. Her eyes were red. She was too restless to remain seated. As soon as she saw them approaching, she was the first to rise from the sofa. Overwhelmed with emotion, she walked toward them, her attention focused primarily on Alexander.

"Alex, you're finally here! That's all that matters. Did your journey go smoothly? This must be Bella. She's beautiful-even more so than on television."

Alexander held onto Marley's arm, his expression as indifferent as ever. Yet, his gaze was gentle. Marley didn't replace his aloof demeanor off-putting. Instead, she happily patted Alexander's hand non-stop. Then, she turned her attention to Isabella and scanned Isabella from head to toe with an expression of pure joy.

The warm and affectionate demeanor of Marley instantly softened Isabella's resolve. She nearly assumed that such a pleasant woman could never possibly treat Alexander poorly.

However, in the next moment, Isabella strengthened her resolve. She had already inquired about the names of Lionel and Marley. At this moment, Isabella checked the crucial information.

Okay. Lionel and Marley have passed!

For a moment, Alexander was taken aback, not immediately understanding what 'sabella was saying. He quickly turned to look at the others from the Quirk family.

Naturally, the folks from the Quirk family understood what Isabella was up to. When they heard those words, they collectively breathed a sigh of relief.

Naturally, they found it difficult to accept that this matter was connected to their grandfather. As for Marley, who had sacrificed so much for the family, they were reluctant to believe that such a person could harm Alexander. Luckily, their fears seemed to be wrong.

However, they quickly gathered their senses and surreptitiously observed the reactions of the others

present.

No one else had any reactions. This immediately put them at ease. After all, Isabella's heartfelt confession had been quite abrupt. It was impossible for anyone who heard it to have no reaction at all.

In fact, they speculated that not all members of the Quirk family could hear it. After all, some relatives from the Quirk family had come because of what happened to Callahan, and none of them could hear Isabella's thoughts. This moment only served to further confirm this point.

Perhaps it was because they held a significant place in Isabella's heart.

The Quirk family couldn't help but feel a sense of pride swelling within them, as if they had received some form of validation.

After greeting Alexander and Isabella, Marley naturally didn't forget about Callahan, who was visiting for the first time. If she was strong enough, she would have loved to hold Callahan in her arms. "Oh my! Cal looks so much like Alex when he was young. Such a lovely child! You've had a tough time outside, but now you're back. That's wonderful, just wonderful."

Lionel cleared his throat, signaling Marley to keep her composure.

"Aunt Marley seems to have forgotten about us old folks when she sees the younger generation." On the couch sat an older couple, Caitlin and Adam. They too stood up to welcome everyone, eagerly inviting them to take a seat before continuing the conversation. 1.8K
